“We should not be standing idly by whilst hard-won gains in gender equality are lost.” — @SarahChampionMP

@CommonsIDC report on WPS highlights risks to progress.

As conflicts increase and ODA cuts bite, it’s time for gov’t to act - prioritising in practice, not just rhetoric.

[Dorothy Sang @DorothySang]

So important to be ensuring our domestic commitment to ending violence against women & girls is matched internationally - misogyny knows no borders. Thank you @SarahChampionMP for always keeping this front and centre

The PM stays committed to tackling #VAWG not just domestically but internationally, but where is the money? @CommonsIDC @CommonsLiaison ⁦@CARE⁩ ⁦@Action_Aid⁩

As Westminster quietens down for the summer, a moment of appreciation for MPs and peers who’ve championed a UK foreign policy that puts #genderequality at its heart. Your voices matter and drive real change for those resisting rollback all over the world — thank you. 🌍👏 #UKaid

'They will die': Foreign aid cuts hit women and girls the hardest as NGOs face closure

@DorothySang of @careintuk: "need to make sure the decisions being made right now do not leave a legacy of destruction"

The British public recognise how critical this is - 63% think the aid budget should be used to protect women’s and girls’ rights, rising to almost 8 in 10 Labour supporters.

Join us & write to your MP to ask them to protect women and girls from the cuts: https://t.co/QJxVSeLEQb

60+ organisations have rallied together together to stand up against UK Govs decision to make women and girls pay the price of the aid cuts: https://t.co/jtmLnFFmWd

[Dorothy Sang @DorothySang]

Budgetary decisions signal the UK’s priorities to the world. It's no wonder that latest polling shows that less than 40% of the UK public think this Government cares about women's rights!

The UK Government is set to make women and girls pay the highest price for their aid cuts. Please take 2 mins to email your MP to raise your voice against this! https://t.co/1Ag4R7Pb1e

[Laura Denham @ldenham22]

At the @CommonsIDC: “Our intention is to increase [the development budget] over time”.

In the media: “0.3% GNI spend is the new normal”.

What @HelenPankhurst said 🫶

[Dorothy Sang @DorothySang]

If the manifesto is being torn up to reflect changing times, why not start by changing the fiscal rules instead of making the poorest pay the price?

We agree. That’s why we’re calling for the Foreign Secretary to protect women & girls from the aid cuts -> https://t.co/usMaw4LdAp

👏 to see @HarrietHarman, a lifelong champion for #genderequality, appointed. The role will benefit enormously from her experience — but must be backed by, at least, a 20% share of the aid budget dedicated to supporting women and girls worldwide. #StopTheCuts #SupportWomenLeaders
